Audio stories. Kiddie Records Weekly is a three year project celebrating the golden age of children's records. This brief but prolific period spanned from the mid forties through the early fifties, producing a wealth of all-time classics. Many of these recordings (everything from Robin Hood to Grimm's Fairy Tales to Mr. Ed and My Favorite Martian) were extravagant Hollywood productions on major record labels and featured big time celebrities and composers. Each recording has been carefully transferred from the original 78s and encoded to MP3 format for you to download and enjoy with your children. You'll find a new addition every week, all year long.
